SDCC ’09: Emma Frost in Day One & Two Roundup SDCC ’09: Emma Frost in Day One & Two Roundup

Added July 24, 2009 by Aimee

Emma Frost is barely mentioned in Marvel’s SDCC panels. However, there is some noteworthy news regarding the return of the Black Queen (Selene) and the future of Dark X-Men, etc.

CCI: Mondo Marvel Panel
Quesada said Marvel is “heading toward the end of the third act of what we started in ‘Civil War,’” and will pull back from mega-events. “You’ll see more family-oriented adventures, between the X-Men family, the Avengers family, and Daredevil,” he said.

CCI: X-Men Panel
Fraction began by talking about “Dark Avengers/X-Men,” which has “an ending no one will see coming, that’s for sure.” He said that ending would feature “some of the most incredible Mike Deodato art you’ve ever seen.”

CCI: Kyle, Yost, Carey, and Wells Talk ‘Necrosha’ – Selene will return in an upcoming arc of X-Forced called ‘Necrosha.’
Kyle and Yost plan to continue their exploration of Selene as a character in the subsequent “X-Force” issues of Necrosha. “We always enjoyed Emma Frost from her Hellfire Club days, but when Grant Morrison brought her into the X-Men fold, we felt she really shined as a character. We’ve always looked at Selene as a character that had all that potential too,” Craig Kyle said. “As Chris mentioned, people have failed her, betrayed her and stood in her way, and this is the time where you’ll finally see her hit the heights of greatness that she was destined for. If we can get Selene anywhere near what Emma has become and show that’s she’s an equal and opposite to the White Queen, that will be the real success of the storyline, because the Hellfire Club has always been rich with great characters. Emma’s proved that and now it’s time for Selene to try and hit those same heights.”
